a continuous flow of feelings and color, inspired by the beauty around us

for my daughter who runs

by Carol Bass

so I found a dirt road
that you'll love
quiet, with shadows drawing lines back and forth
early morn or late afternoon with the sun warm and gentle
you choose a time
I'll drive you there
across the marsh
green herons perch on the old man's dock
a creek, parallel to this road
flows high and low with the tide,
and waits to run with you
